The Bruins have one game in their mini season and are playing some of the best defensive football in the nation. Much of the nation caught a glimpse of what this defense is capable of by shutting down the vaunted USC offense when the Bruins ended their archrival's 63 game streak of scoring 20 points or more on December 2nd.

The Bruins are currently on a three game the longest winning streak to end the season in almost a decade, yet all of the good made by this team could go out the window with a loss to Florida State in the Emerald Bowl.

Fair or not that is the perception by many Bruin fans and non Bruin fans alike.
